Crema's Take
“Ilana Coffee is a beloved neighborhood gem where Vietnamese sandwiches and expertly crafted espresso drinks share equal billing, drawing locals back again and again with genuinely warm service and the kind of homey, family-run energy that feels like a third place. Whether you're stopping by for a quick Vietnamese iced coffee and bagel on your way somewhere or settling into their outdoor seating for a longer visit, you'll find an early-opening spot that handles the morning rush with both efficiency and genuine friendliness, plus the convenience of phone orders if you're in a hurry.”

They do phone orders! Cash and credit card. Stopped here on the way to crabbing :) Never been before, but very happy we tried it out! Got 3 combos and 2 porks, yum! Warm and crunchy! They were very nice :)
Very friendly staff and a delicious bagel and Vietnamese iced coffee! Came here two days in a row and will be coming again soon ☺️🥯🧋
Old school family ran spot. Bhan Mi was a little underwhelming, heavy bread. But was good, just expected more from a recommendation. Took 20-25 minutes. Had it in a nice small hike.
2025 update: Ilana Coffee is my favorite coffee shop in the area. The people that work here are cool. The cafe feels local with good bagels, coffee, pastries and sandwiches. My favorite is their combo Vietnamese sandwich $8.25 w/extra meat pate +$1. Ilana Coffee is a great place to hang out on a lazy Sunday. Original review: Ilana Coffee have Vietnamese sandwiches. This is our early morning spot for coffee and a sandwich on the weekends. We usually ride our bicycles on the Great Highway and then through Golden Gate Park. It just so happens, this is the midway point before we head back. It is a good spot because they have chairs outside and we can park our bicycles on the sidewalk without having to lock them up. Service is friendly and quick.
There are so many reasons to like Ilana Coffee. - It opens early and its service was very friendly, efficient and fast. - It's Vietnamese sandwich is great. I had a combination sandwich, with has ham. pate and headchese. It’s a junior size but good for the price and perfect as a breakfast. - It has a lot more than Vietnamese sandwich. I also tried an egg, cheese and ham breakfast sandwich and for $4.25 it has excellent value.
